Adhisthana is central to the Triratna Buddhist movement, and yet there is something indefinable about it. It is a place of legacy, of lineage. It is home to our most sacred shrine – the memorial garden of Urgyen Sangharakshita. It is a hub, a meeting place, a home for the sangha. A place where everyone can come and feel welcome.
We have only been open a few years, but already it’s hard to imagine the Triratna Buddhist movement without Adhisthana. An immense amount of devoted work goes into keeping it running, and we want to keep improving. There is a huge amount of potential for this place. So much more we want to do to ensure Bhante’s teachings are remembered.
But this takes a lot of resources. There is a small, dedicated team, and a vast project and vision for this place. By donating, you will be strengthening not only Adhisthana, but the whole Triratna community, and the communication of the Dharma around the world.
We are hugely appreciative of however much you can give – whether that is a one-off amount or a regular gift. Monthly donations enable us to plan more effectively, meaning your money will have an even greater impact.

MAKING A WILL
A will is a way of reflecting on what matters most to you and is the best way to ensure that, after you’ve gone, your possessions go to those causes that you care most about. Even if you can only bequeath a little, this can be very helpful to the future of Adhisthana.
At first the whole process can seem quite overwhelming, but putting together a will can be a lot simpler and more straightforward than you might realise. A simple step-by-step guide to writing a will, written by the Triratna Development Team, is available here for you to download and use.
